Description
Graffiti as art: a complex and multifaceted phenomenon that defies easy definition. This book explores the evolution of graffiti through the work of Tilt, a pioneering artist who has been active in the scene since 1990.
The history of graffiti is one of resistance and subversion, a reaction against the dominant urban landscape and the commercialization of public space. For Tilt, graffiti is not just a form of self-expression, but a way of intervening in the city itself, challenging its authority and creating new forms of artistic expression.
This book presents a unique perspective on the art of graffiti, tracing its development from its origins in the 1970s to the present day. With its striking images and insightful analysis, it offers a fascinating look at the world of street art and the artists who shape it.
